The sound of the wind was infinitely stretched out. Yu Qirong relaxed his body, allowing himself to gradually adapt to the discomfort brought by the feeling of weightlessness. In his field of vision, the moon hanging in the sky also became blurry.
The next second, his vision went completely black, as if he was locked in a dark place.
A dark blue dialog box suddenly flashed before my eyes.
[Drop——Has left the S-level copy: Lunar Eclipse,

Total player balance points: 1139600, qualified to enter the inner city, do you want to enter the inner city immediately? 】
"Yes." Yu Qirong replied.
Xiangyang already knew his NPC identity. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he decided not to return to his original place and go directly to the inner city.
The feeling of weightlessness disappeared, and a pair of white sneakers fell to the ground. Yu Qirong looked at his clothes, but found that the blood stains in the copy had disappeared. The knife wound on his shirt was also completely restored.
He looked around and made sure there were no familiar faces around before he calmed down and looked at the environment in the inner city first.
The flashing neon lights illuminated the night. The bustling environment with bright lights and people coming and going made Yu Qirong feel novel. He stood on tiptoe and looked at the various signs. His high school diploma was enough to understand the words on all the signs.
After looking around, Yu Qirong roughly understood that this was a commercial street.
There is everything here, including food, daily necessities and entertainment. It is like a large shopping mall.
Yu Qirong moved among the crowd. Because of his delicate face, people passing by turned around to look at him, but he himself was unaware of it.
An alluring aroma wafted out, similar to the smell of baked bread and grilled meat. The smell could even outline shapes and colors in Yu Qirong's mind.
Yu Qirong couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and his stomach growled in response.
Originally, NPCs didn't need to eat. When he saw the transfer students wolfing down their food in college, he thought they were troublesome.
But after eating the food that a normal person should eat in the Lunar Eclipse copy, Yu Qirong felt that he was hooked by these things that only humans would eat.
This must be a human trick!
Yu Qirong thought angrily, but his feet couldn't help but walk towards the direction of the smell.
He licked his lips, his wine-red eyes full of desire. He looked up at the name of the store "Laiqu", but didn't understand what it meant. However, the smell of the food was so tempting that he stepped straight in.
Just as Yu Qirong had thought, the table inside was filled with delicious-looking food. The greasy barbecue on the iron rack made a sizzling sound, and the croissant-shaped bread looked particularly delicious under the warm yellow light.
Yu Qirong walked in, but unlike when he entered the clothing store, no one came to greet him or tell him the price.
In human society, if you want to make a deal, you have to pay a price. This is the truth that Yu Qirong learned right after graduating from college.
In order to avoid spending the points he could not afford all at once, he stood aside very reservedly, but his eyes were staring at the delicious food on the table without any concealment.
A person blocked his view. Yu Qirong was about to move to another place to continue watching, but was surprised to find that the person had picked up a piece of fragrant, golden barbecue with chopsticks and started to taste it as if no one was around.
The key is that no one asked him for points.
Yu Qirong suddenly became conflicted, it really seemed like it was free.
This was different from the rules he had learned.
Such a white-haired beauty who stared at the delicious food but hesitated to eat it was really eye-catching. Yu Qirong did not notice the glances that other people in the store cast in his direction from time to time.
In other words, I noticed it, but didn't take it seriously.
He was the most handsome boy on campus in college. If his classmates had noticed him, and he had to take care of them one by one, he would have been exhausted to death and would not be alive today.
These glances, perhaps of admiration or perhaps of covetousness, were all very familiar to Yu Qirong, and he could simply ignore them all.
Yu Qirong prepared himself mentally.
If the food is really free, that's great; if there is a price, he can pay it if he can afford it; if he can't afford it... then he can only run away.
He is quite confident in this regard.
"Do you want to eat?" A voice beside him interrupted his movement to walk over. Yu Qirong felt panicked as if he was discovered before he even started.
Xie Yi noticed Yu Qirong as soon as he stepped into the door. His unusual hair and eye color were too eye-catching. He had never seen such a good-looking person in "Laiqu".
He walked over and spoke, and most of the eyes looking at him decreased. Xie Yi paid attention to Yu Qirong's expression.
He opened his eyes wide, and one could clearly see confusion in his wine-red pupils, which made Xie Yi inexplicably think of the little white rabbit.
A little white rabbit that is at a loss and seems like it will run away at any time.
This association made Xie Yi couldn't help but smile. His pair of sparkling peach blossom eyes seemed to be smiling even when he was not smiling, not to mention when he was smiling.
Yu Qirong has always been closer to good-looking people. He let down his guard a little, but did not want to reveal too much of his desires, so he just nodded slightly.
Yu Qirong didn't know that her eyes were gleaming with desire for food, and Xie Yi saw through all that thought, so Xie Yi smiled even more brightly and said in a relaxed tone: "Then go eat. You are new here, right? Laiqu doesn't charge for meals."
Is there such a good thing?
Yu Qirong's eyes lit up, but she calmed down in an instant.
Many of the humans he had seen were cunning types who not only cheated people but also set traps for others. He glanced at the thanks uncertainly and asked hesitantly, "Was there no meal fee charged at the dining place?"
"'Laiqu' is not a place to eat." Xie Yi smiled, led Yu Qirong to where the food was placed, picked up the plate, put a few pieces of barbecue in it, and then handed it to Yu Qirong.
Yu Qirong had a psychological struggle, but still couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, so he took it and ate it with relish.
When he eats, he looks like a little squirrel hiding food, with his cheeks bulging and moving up and down as he chews. He is so adorable.
Xie Yi pressed the table and sat on a high stool placed nearby, motioning Yu Qirong to sit on it as well. She supported her chin and admired him eating for a while before pointing to a crowded place not far away.
"'Laiqu' is where you register as a team. It's normal that you don't know it on your first visit. After all, the registration offices in the outer city don't look like this."
He had never seen one in the outer city.
"..." Yu Qirong just focused on eating his own food, his eyes following the direction Xie Yi pointed.
In the entire hall, there were very few people sitting at the dining table. Most people gathered a little further away from here, and it was hard to see what was over there that could be more tempting than food.
"You came at the right time. The four major guilds are recruiting new members today." Having said this, Xie Yi paused deliberately, but did not see the excitement he wanted to see on Yu Qirong's face.
Yu Qirong raised one eyebrow and looked at Xie Yi. He seemed to be wondering why Xie Yi stopped. He was quite curious about these things.
"No way, you haven't heard of the four major guilds?" Xie Yi saw what Yu Qirong meant, and he introduced them to Yu Qirong in disbelief: "Hongmeng, Phoenix, Wubo and Chenxing."
"I've heard of 'The Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix.'" Yu Qirong picked up the tongs nonchalantly, picked up two pieces of barbecue and a croissant, and put them on his plate.
His Chinese teacher talked about it in class, and he thought it was very suitable for writing love letters, so he was quite impressed.
"You haven't heard of the four major guilds, how did you get the points to enter the inner city? Did you buy a lottery ticket?" Xie Yi didn't expect that Yu Qirong really had never heard of them, so he began to question the reason why he was able to enter the inner city.
It's not that he was making a fuss. People in the outer city area basically knew about the four major guilds in the inner city. After all, the four major guilds were powerful and often posted some useful information for passing levels on the forum.
"Lottery?" Yu Qirong searched his brain for knowledge and found that he had no impression of these two words at all, so he shook his head and said, "No."
"..." Xie Yi was shocked by this beautiful woman who knew nothing about anything, and finally attributed it to his good luck.
"Humans are social animals. They like to stay together for warmth. The purpose of establishing a union is to build a relationship that is more connected than a small team."
Xie Yi explained to Yu Qirong earnestly: "Joining a good guild can provide a lot of help. The most obvious benefit is that you can be more guaranteed to be led through the dungeon."
Yu Qirong nodded. He understood this. Lu Tao and Li Yinggui chose the wrong person. Fortunately, they paid him points later, so they had a chance to survive.
"The guild was established with the joint efforts of everyone. It has strong financial resources and strength. The four guilds I just mentioned are all top-notch. Even this 'Laiqu' was established through joint venture between them."
"Guild members can exchange dungeon experiences with each other, and the guild will also issue tasks and give certain rewards to members who help the guild complete the tasks."
"The establishment of a guild requires everyone's joint efforts. You know how dangerous this dungeon is... We need fresh blood, so there is recruitment."
Yu Qirong bit the fork thoughtfully, seemingly thinking, but in fact, the words of thanks went in one ear and out the other, and not much was left.
He has the ability to complete the dungeon, so he doesn't need to carry anything. But he likes the points very much, and he feels at ease just looking at them.
Therefore, if joining the guild can make everyone trust him more and willingly give him points, then he will consider it.
Xie Yi didn't know what Yu Qirong was thinking, and thought he was moved, so he smiled and said, "If you want to come in, I have some connections... Let me introduce myself first. My name is Xie Yi, what's yours?"
Yu Qirong glanced at him: "Yu Qirong."
The smile on Xie Yi's face disappeared instantly. He looked at Yu Qirong seriously and asked again in disbelief: "Which words?"
Yu Qirong took a cup and filled it with water without any instruction. She dipped her slender fingers into the water and wrote the three words "Yu Qirong" on the table in a flamboyant and twisted manner.
Although it is difficult to distinguish, the gratitude is still visible.
His face changed, and he grabbed Yu Qirong's wrist, pulled her down from the chair, and walked to a remote corner.
